MLB odds: Braves, Dodgers, Blue Jays, and Astros lead pennant futures
MLB is back! With the season two weeks in, here is a look at the Divisional odds for both the National League and American League.APRIL 21, 2022
Jordyn Adams - Strikeouts down at High-AAdams (ankle) returned to action Wednesday for High-A Tri-City, going 1-for-5 with two RBI and one steal.
ImpactHe missed a week with a minor ankle injury. Adams is hitting .381/.417/.524 with zero home runs and two steals through five games. Most importantly, he has only struck out three times in 21 at-bats after logging a 37.8 K% at this level last year. Look for him to get the bump to Double-A in the coming weeks if he keeps producing.

Jake Odorizzi - Can't escape first inningOdorizzi (0-2) took the loss Wednesday, surrendering six runs (three earned) on two hits and four walks over two-thirds of an inning as the Astros fell 6-0 to the Angels. He struck...
ImpactThe first five Los Angeles batters all reached base against Odorizzi, and while a Yuli Gurriel two-out error after he'd already gotten the hook tacked some additional runs onto his ledger, there's no solver lining for the right-hander here. Odorizzi has a brutal 9.00 ERA, 2.56 WHIP and 5:7 K:BB through nine innings over his first three starts, and it may not be long before he loses his spot in the rotation entirely given how effective Cristian Javier has been in long relief, including 3.2 scoreless frames Wednesday.
